What Is this Disease that Is Coming
l)Don iiS2

Fw"
Like a thief at night it steal
in upon us unawares. The pa
tients have pains about tn
chest and sides, and sometime
in the back. They feel dull
and sleepy; the mouth has 6
bad taste, especially in the
morning. A sort of sticky slime
collects about the teeth. The
appetite is poor. There is a
feeling like a heavy load on the
stomach; sometimes a faint, all
gone sensation at the pit of the
stomach which food does not
satisfy, The eyes are sunken,
the hands and feet become cold
and clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after few months It's attend
ed with a greenish-colored ex-
pectoration. The patient feels
tired all the while, and sleep
does not seem to afford any
rest. After a time he becomes
nervous, irritable and gloomy,
and has evil forebodings. There
is a giddiness, a sort of whirl-
ing sensation in the head when
rising up suddenly. The bow
els become costive; the skin is
dry and hot at times; the blood
becomes thick and stagnant;
the whites of the eyes become
tinged with yellow; the urine
is scanty and high colored, de-
posting a sediment after stand
ing. There is frequently
splitting up of the food, some
times with a sour taste and
sometimes with a swedish
taste; this is frequently at
tended with palpitation of the
heart; the vision becomes i'm
paired, with spots before the
eyes; there is a feeling of great
prostration and weakness. All
Of these symptoms are in turn
present. 1t is thought that
nearly one-third of our popu-
lation has this disease in some
Of its varied forms.
1t has been found that ply
sicians have mistaken the cause
# this disease. Some have
dreated it for liver complaint,
others for kidney disease, ETC.,
etc, but none of these kinds of
treatment have been attended
with success; for it is really
constipation and dyspepsia. 1t
IS also found that Shaker Elk
tract of Roots, or Mother Sci
gels Curative Syrup, when
properly prepared will remove
this disease in all it's stages.
Care must be taken, however,
TO secure the genuine article.
1T WILL SELL BETTER THAN
COTTON.
Mr.. John c. Hemptinstall,
Of Chulafrmee, Cleburn Co.,
Ala, writes: "My wife has
been so much benefited by
Shaker Extract of Roots OF
Seigel's Syrup that she says
she would rather be without
part of her food than without
the medicine. 1t has done her
more good than the doctors and
allother medicines put together.
| would ride twenty miles to
get it into the hands of any suf,
ierer if he can get it in no other
way. l believe it will soon sellin
this State better than cotton.
TESTIMONY FROM TEXAS.
Mrs. Sc. Barton, of Warner,
Ripley Co., Mo-, writes that
she had been long afflicted with
dyspepsia and disease of the
urinary organs and was cured
by Shaker Extract of Roots.
Rev. J. J. McGuire, merchant,
of the same place, who sold
Mrs. Barton the medicine, says
he has sold it for four years
and never knew it to fail.

by far the best thing of the kind they

wasted on inferior posts, when oul
farmers for less money could buy
their iron posts which will last forever

of the word. Nothing sets a farm of
